Trinity Hospice Sponsored Walk
Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Ian Squire, aged 56 and I have lived in Lytham St Annes since 1992. I grew up in Durham City and have always desired to walk from St Cuthbert's Church and stone cross in Lytham to Durham Cathedral, the burial place of St Cuthbert. I have always felt inspired by St Cuthbert and the Celtic saints and I am doing this walk over six days starting Monday 13th March 2023 in order to be at Durham Cathedral for the feast day of St Cuthbert on 20th March.
I am raising funds for the very worthy local cause, Trinity Hospice, a leading palliative care provider across the Fylde. Trinity Hospice only receives a fraction of their funding from governernment and needs to raise around two thirds via voluntary contributions. If you are able to contribute any amount you can do so by visiting the JustGiving page:

Any donations, however small are all most gratefully received. Thank you. From Trinity Hospice website:
"We touch the lives of around 8,000 people every year, supporting them physically, emotionally and spiritually....our service is tailored to each person's individual needs to improve their quality of life and relieve the stress serious illness brings."

I was a teacher for many years in primary and special needs schools across the Fylde. In 2013 I left teaching and my wife, Kirsten and I now own a local cleaning company, Complete Floor Care Ltd incorporating Lytham St Annes Carpet Cleaning based in St Annes. We have three children, Oliver, Zac and Asher. I will be doing the walk of approximately 130 miles with my friend, Tim Firth. Please support us as best you can. Thank you very much indeed.
